Title: Simple Matters Ditto review: This minimalist wearable is too simple for its own good Post by: HCK on August 17, 2015, 03:00:13 am Simple Matters Ditto review: This minimalist wearable is too simple for its own good
<article> <section class="page"> <p> Ditto has the dubious distinction of being the first tech product that I’ve ever lost as an adult.</p><p> While this is sort of embarrassing to admit, I don’t think it’s entirely my fault. Ditto is a $40 thumb-sized device that you clip onto your clothing or stick in your pocket, and gives off a little buzz when you get an important notification. Ditto is supposed to be simple and unobtrusive, but it was so successful in those regards that I didn’t notice its absence for days. And at that point, finding it was a lost cause.</p><p> Fortunately for this review, I was able to get a good handle on Ditto's benefits before I lost it—but the news isn't good: After two weeks of weeks of extended use, I can conclude that Ditto doesn't do anything for me. Its capabilities are currently far too limited, and full-blown smartwatches are finally getting good enough that an ultra-minimalist wearable like Ditto isn’t as appealing as it once seemed (http://www.pcworld.com/article/2865281/hands-on-ditto-is-a-tiny-wearable-with-a-refreshingly-minimalist-focus.html).</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2969836/wearables/simple-matters-ditto-review-this-minimalist-wearable-is-too-simple-for-its-own-good.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Simple Matters Ditto review: This minimalist wearable is too simple for its own good (http://www.macworld.com/article/2969836/wearables/simple-matters-ditto-review-this-minimalist-wearable-is-too-simple-for-its-own-good.html#tk.rss_all) |
